May Sock Club

I was super excited to see what was inside the May 2024 Solo Sock Club bag. I loved this yarn when I first received it, and it may have been the first skein I reached for when curating my 2024 Solo Sock Club. Extra special bonus for this month - this company is still in business, and you can get your hands on this very same skein of yarn today. The yarn for May is from Black Trillium Fibers Lilt Sock yarn in the Hedwig colorway.

Yet again, I have paired this with a vanilla sock pattern so that the speckles would show well. I'm not entirely sure that this was necessary, but I do enjoy a good knit that I can work on without referring to a pattern, and this one fits the bill. Leave a comment if you would like me to write up a pattern for my vanilla socks. There were 6 bags out of 12 assigned to be vanilla sock patterns, so there are only 2 more remaining for 2024; there are 5 remaining patterns for which I will work from a pattern and will share a link for each respective one.

I am thoroughly enjoying the Lilt sock yarn base. It makes a delightful fabric. The fiber content is 85% superwash merino wool and 15% mulberry silk. This would also make a great yarn for any next-to-skin projects, such as scarves or shawls. Stay tuned to see my finished socks!
